I experienced an incident involving harassment by Sara Waterman regarding parking in the Pacific Medical Center parking garage. While exiting the garage behind the individual and others, I was subjected to unwarranted scrutiny and harassment regarding my use of the parking facilities. It is notable that despite the presence of other individuals exiting the garage who were not affiliated with the Pacific Medical Center, I was singled out for such treatment, which I perceive as discriminatory given my identity as a Black woman.
On May 13th, a security guard within the garage assured me of the permissibility of parking there for extended durations. Moreover, I have consistently observed individuals, including those employed by the Pacific Medical Center or its affiliated entities, utilizing the same parking facilities without issue. Consequently, it is evident that the actions taken against me by the aforementioned medical professional were not only unjustified but also exceeded the bounds of her professional responsibility and stature.
During the encounter, the medical professional in question explicitly stated her intention to overlook the alleged infraction, implying a disregard for proper protocol, and proceeded to attribute patient parking concerns to my presence. This sense of entitlement displayed towards me raises concerns regarding her treatment of patients, particularly those from marginalized communities.
In summary, the behavior exhibited by this medical professional was wholly inappropriate and unwarranted, and I intend to pursue appropriate channels within the Pacific Medical Center to address this incident of harassment. read more
